What is recorded here

Harbison (1997, 171-6) identified a fragment of a high cross built into the stonework of the church and subsequently removed to OPW headquarters in 1994 (ME019-112). The interlace panel has been compared with that on crosses at Clonmacnoise and Kells suggesting a date of c. 950-1000 (Seaver, M. & Brady, C. 2011).
